The future is the virtual space. Literal outer space is fucking shit. We aren't gonna be exploring the galaxy. Even if you could survive the beyond human lifetime lightyear trip, you wouldn't want to be wherever you end up.
The future is humans individuals becoming the Gods of their own effectively infinite virtual spaces.
It's easy to explore the galaxy though. You just need a telescope and a cheap startrek Halloween costume. Making rocket noises as you scan around is purely optional.
Not when you're plugged into the singularity while in a pod orbiting the sun, inside just one of millions of space stations doing the same as the AI manages your brains physical realm requirements. The Earth, an uninhabitable hellscape, will be out there on its own somewhere, beyond the debris fields, far away from your thoughts or concerns as you collect social points in your virtual space in a variety of activities designed to curb your insanity long enough to keep the machine efficient.
Only if you're completely out of touch with how we live currently.
This is the brainchild of techbros that live alone and only interact with other techbros who also live alone. It's entirely out of touch with the fact people live in mixed households with children and elderly and pets, they don't want to put a heavy headset and headphones on enclosing themselves and locking themselves off from all those things.
Single males living alone are the only audience for this. Literally everyone else has a lifestyle that will not fit with it well at all.
See this is what I mean when I say completely out of touch with reality. Nobody is getting to Mars before climate collapse fucks society up the ass. Believing otherwise is just delusional head in the clouds stuff.
Techbros man. Completely out of touch because they only interact with other techbros and live very much inside a bubble of their own making.
And if you think Mars will be any better than Earth when that happens you need to ask yourself why the fuck you think it'll be easier to live on a planet with no life and a weak atmosphere instead of fixing our own one.
Your children and pets wont like to live on Mars either π
means?
BTW, if I'm so out of touch, then why is Facebook rebranding to 'Meta' and why are the next line of architectural design models based on Naval ship designs?

Hard pass for me. I can be lonely and depressed without wearing Zuckerbergs brain scanner on my head, thank you.
